‘Palm leaf’ book structure in cedar wood covers.
Under the Ice’ explores the marks left in nature by the formation and movement of frozen water. Materials used are cedar wood, drift wood, tin and various water treated papers. The structure is ancient Asian ‘palm-leaf’ book. I created this book as a response to the theme ‘Water’ for an exhibition of book works at Noosa Regional Gallery in Australia.

These sculptural book forms play with the notion of what can be considered a book. Some of them explore multicultural and ancient book structures. The array of materials used is without limits.

When the book form meets artistic expression the results are visual stories what do not necessarily need words. They can be read from the interplay of materials, textures and colours.
